Roy was released from the Capitals Monday.

Analysis:

The 32-year-old forward was brought in to help shore up the offense while Nicklas Backstrom (hip) continues to work his way back into the lineup. However, Roy was unable to leapfrog Andre Burakovsky into the top-six, and so he will hope to catch on with another team.
